A meta-analysis of 13 trials involving more than 90,000 patients found that statin use increases the overall absolute risk of developing diabetes mellitus by 0.39% (number needed to harm = 255) over four years.
Whether you need to be on a statin depends on your cholesterol level, along with your other risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Most people should try to keep their total cholesterol level below 200 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) (6.22 millimoles per liter, or mmol/L).f the risk is very low, there is probably no need for statins, unless the LDL is above 190 mg/dL (4.9 mmol/L). If the risk is very high â for example, someone who has had a heart attack in the past â the person may benefit from statins, even if his or her cholesterol is not elevated.
